YMCA offering running program

NAUGATUCK —The Naugatuck YMCA running program is starting a brand new half “crazy” marathon program on Tuesday.

The program will run for 10 weeks and features group runs on Tuesday and Thursday evenings as well as Saturday mornings. The goal race for this program will be the NU Hartford Half Marathon on Oct. 11.

The Naugatuck YMCA running program and running club are now being offered through the RRCA or Road Runners Club of America with certified running coaches. Healthy Initiatives Director Lori Czajkowski has just completed her running coach certification along with volunteer Rhonda Lord.
